as they will go. Make sure that the plastic pieces on both sides of the gantry are ﬂush

against the plastic brackets that hold the two front pulleys.

6. Use the 1.5 mm hex wrench to tighten the set screw in each of the two back pulleys.

Make sure these set screws are very tight.

NOTE: If you cannot see one of the set screws, hold both sides of the gantry and

gently push it away from the front of the MakerBot Replicator 2X. Make sure to exert

an equal amount of pressure on both sides of the gantry. Push only until you can see

the hidden set screw.
